STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- "Man Made," the organizing theme of the current Staten Island Camera Club show, sounds a little broad, doesn't it? It could just be a matter of avoiding Mother Nature, in favor of subjects that bear the mark of man, right?

Seeking designs (or evidence of design), they went looking for complicated situations, where the information is ambiguous, where natural forces and manmade entities become collaborators or opponents.

Among the more provocative images is Miguel Angel's "Ojos que te ven," in which odd, old hooks in a weathered wall seem bizarrely animated.

Barbara Feist's "Stripes," a photograph of rep ties, each in its own street vendor's cubby, suggests the ingeniousness of the consumer economy and its unexpected beauty of pattern and variation. For layers, it's hard to top Dennis Smith's "Waterfalls," depicting last summer's Olafur Eliasson East River installations. It's a photographer shooting the contribution of an artist who has developed a perfectly artificial version of a non-manmade phenomenon.
